WOW thats movin.
Congrats to Wade and all the guys at ARE.
Very impressed that this run was made without the transbrake. Should be able to clip another .1-.2 once the suspension gets dialed in and they get the trans brake working again.
So who is gonna stup up and take the LT1 crown?

Or??? Can a Stock Suspended 4th Gen go 8.5
Time will tell!

Well I'm not trying to bust any ***** hear, does Wade's car Really have a Stock Suspension? Looks like pretty big tire on the back, maybe it's just me. And what I call stock, maybe you don't. Stock to me is no modifications, or stock torque arm, control arms, etc., And you know what they say about opinions........

I believe our car will go 8.70's on a better 60', so 8.50's isn't out of the question..

several people from my club were there to see the run.
They have been on the verge of 8`s all year but I guess the cool air and some tinkering just pushed them over.
congrats guys
